NTLDR is missing

Last week I turned on my computer and I got a blue screen saying "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME". Searched on the net and found out I should use fixboot command to fix it. Tried to reboot straight away and now when I start my computer I get the "ntldr is missing" message.
I have Windows XP Home Edition which was pre-installed on my machine so I don't have the Windows XP cd.
Can anyone please e-mail me the ntldr and ntdetect files?
allthough i havent had a chance to do anything yet so i dont know how to sort it
